Why Is Regional Mexican not Mainstream?

The largest group of Latinos & music consumers in the US are Mexican. 9 out of the top 10 selling albums last year were Regional Mex artists yet still they don’t receive as much coverage in the media.

The Underrepresentation of Women in The Latin Music Industry

Let’s talk about the relationship between Latin Music and Women–Are there less Women in Latin music (both on the business side and the talent side? Or is the male-dominance a reflection of the current genre of music that is popular (urban, reggaeton) which tends to be more male? What can be done to make a difference? Are things changing in 2018? Is this a problem in general market industry as well?

The Breakdown of Language Barriers in Music

Spanish language music is now charting–such as J Balvin’s hit and Luis Fonsi. America is the only nation that listens to music in their own language. For the first time ever now general market producers are reaching out to us for collaborations and not vice versa.

All musicians and music industry professionals are allowed to attend the full program of Hispanicize L.A., which includes 18 additional sessions for journalists, filmmakers, creators, brands and entrepreneurs.

Presented by Prudential Financial and created in collaboration with the CCNMA, the Hispanicize L.A. event features a jam-packed but practical agenda that will include case studies, discussions, and keynotes that this year includes celebrities like Kate Del Castillo, Luis Guzman, Flavor Flav, Maurice Benard and more.
